I am way behind on this post, so for those of you who follow me on Instagram and have been asking for this list…I’m so sorry! Would you believe me if I told you I thought I wrote it already? Because seriously, I did. That’s how much I’m losing my […]

Where to Eat Near: Times Square
Ohhhh Times Square. How I LOATHE THEE. Let me count thy ways. Ok sorry, it’s fine, I won’t count. If you’re a born and raised New Yorker like myself, chances are you hate this place too. It’s full of energy, I’ll give it that, but it’s overwhelming and anxiety-inducing. SO […]
Best Pizza in NYC (2019)
I’ve written a few posts like this already, and I’m starting to wonder if I should even bother adding a date to it. Because at the end of the day, the top 5 don’t change much. I’ve been eating in this city for 35 years, and reviewing it for over […]
Best Brunch in NYC (2019)
This list has been a long time coming. I’ve been compiling it for a while and every time I think I’ve finished it, a new “great” place opens up. Then I think to myself, might as well go with what I know to be good and consistent, as opposed to […]
Dinner at Wayla
With summer being my least favorite season of the year, at least I can look forward to one thing: Pretty places to eat and drink. You can go ahead and file Wayla under that category. Tucked away on the LES (quite literally, as it’s in the basement of 111 Forsyth), […]

Where to Eat Brunch Near: Penn Station
I find this to be one of the harder questions I get in life: Where do I eat brunch near Penn Station? I don’t know exactly why that area is the food sinkhole that it is, but it’s getting better. Check out my other list here for regular lunch/dinner and […]
Drinks and Bites at Jungle Bird
Before I do anything, can we just share a moment of appreciation for me making it out to a brand new bar?? I literally don’t remember the last time that happened. My youth has gotten away from me and my idea of a night out is still being home by […]
Lunch at Frankie and Johnnie’s Steakhouse
We all know how much I love a good steak. It’s one of those foods I don’t make for myself a ton, so when I’m presented with the opportunity to review a steakhouse, I rarely turn it down. I’m happy to report that our meal at Frankie and Johnnie’s (the […]
Best Waterfront Restaurants in NYC
It’s almost that time of year! TIME TO DINE AL FRESCO. Ya know, if it ever stops fucking raining. In the summer months in NYC, dining al fresco can be even better with water views (again, I don’t mean rain). What we lack in beach waves we make up for […]
